Baldassari, Mario J.; Moore, Kara N.; Hyman, Ira E., Jr.; Hope, Lorraine; Mah, Eric Y.; Lindsay, D. Stephen; Mansour, Jamal; Saraiva, Renan; Horry, Ruth; Rath, Hannah; Kelly, Lauren; Jones, Rosie; Vale, Shannan; Lawson, Bethany; Pedretti, Josh; Palma, Tomás A.; Cruz, Francisco; Quarenta, Joana; Van der Cruyssen, Ine; Mileva, Mila; Allen, Jessica; Jeye, Brittany; Wiechert, Sara – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
Research on eyewitness identification often involves exposing participants to a simulated crime and later testing memory using a lineup. We conducted a systematic review showing that pre-event instructions, instructions given before event exposure, are rarely reported and those that are reported vary in the extent to which they warn participants…

Swan, Garrett; Xu, Jing; Baliutaviciute, Vilte; Bowers, Alex – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2022
Individuals with homonymous visual field loss (HVFL) fail to perceive visual information that falls within the blind portions of their visual field. This places additional burden on memory to represent information in their blind visual field, which may make visual changes in the scene more difficult to detect. Failing to detect changes could have…

Dobbins, Ian G. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
The recognition memory receiver operating characteristic (ROC) is typically asymmetric with a characteristic elevation of the left-hand portion. Whereas the unequal variance signal detection model (uvsd) assumes the asymmetry results because old item evidence is noisier than new item evidence, the dual process signal detection model (dpsd) assumes…

Kara N. Moore; Blake L. Nesmith; Dara U. Zwemer; Chenxin Yu – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2024
People perform poorly at sighting missing and wanted persons in simulated searches due to attention and face recognition failures. We manipulated participants' expectations of encountering a target person and the within-person variability of the targets' photographs studied in a laboratory-based and a field-based prospective person memory task. We…

Harvey, Alistair J.; Sekulla, Alistair – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2021
We examined the effects of acute alcohol on eyewitness memory for a simulated armed robbery under laboratory conditions. Alcohol and placebo participants viewed a slide series showing a target male taking a laptop from a helpdesk assistant, either on loan or at gunpoint. Following a brief retention period, participants responded to…

Dragos Corlatescu; Micah Watanabe; Stefan Ruseti; Mihai Dascalu; Danielle S. McNamara – Grantee Submission, 2023
Reading comprehension is essential for both knowledge acquisition and memory reinforcement. Automated modeling of the comprehension process provides insights into the efficacy of specific texts as learning tools. This paper introduces an improved version of the Automated Model of Comprehension, version 3.0 (AMoC v3.0). AMoC v3.0 is based on two…

Cullen, Hayley J.; Monds, Lauren A. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
Jury simulation research has been the subject of longstanding criticism in regards to ecological validity. One additional factor that has received little attention that may also impact the generalizability of this research relates to excluding participants based on their memory of, or their attention paid to, the case. In order to determine how…

James N. Cousins; Elaine van Rijn; Ju Lynn Ong; Kian F. Wong; Michael W. L. Chee – npj Science of Learning, 2019
Sleep aids the encoding and consolidation of declarative memories, but many adolescents do not obtain the recommended amount of sleep each night. After a normal night of sleep, there is abundant evidence that a daytime nap enhances the consolidation of material learned before sleep and also improves the encoding of new information upon waking.…

Jun Kataoka – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This dissertation proposes novel Domain Adaptation (DA) methods in real-world industrial settings, where the availability of labeled data is limited and test data can significantly differ from training data. Particularly, our research addresses key challenges in DA, including the applicability of DA methods in industrial settings, strategies to…

Riley, Jason M.; Ellegood, William A. – International Journal of Educational Management, 2020
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to understand how task conflict and relationship conflict influence teams' transactive memory systems (TMS) and by extension team performance. Design/methodology/approach: Leveraging experiential learning theory and a popular operations management simulation tool, survey data from 341 students, who worked on…

Mangiulli, Ivan; Otgaar, Henry; Curci, Antonietta; Jelicic, Marko – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
Research suggests that both internal (i.e., lying) and external (i.e., misinformation) factors can affect memory for a crime. We aimed to explore the effects of post-event misinformation on crime-related amnesia claims. We showed participants a mock crime and asked them to either simulate amnesia (simulators) or confess to it (confessors). Next,…

Young, Richard A.; Marshall, Sheila K.; Stainton, Tim; Chi, Eugene – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2022
Problem and Objective: Transition to adulthood for young people with (IDD) is challenging for both youth and parents. Prospection, an important human adaptive tool and critical for independent living, involves constructing, encoding, and remembering the future. It may be jointly enacted between parents and young people as they discuss the future.…

Anandita Krishnamachari – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2022
A growing body of research shows that findings from studies often fail to replicate (Open Science Collaboration, 2015; Simmons, Nelson, & Simonsohn, 2011). Deviations from study protocols, sampling error, reduced statistical power, and unethical reporting procedures have been cited as reasons for replication failure (Gilbert, King, Pettigrew,…

Wiebels, Kristina; Addis, Donna Rose; Moreau, David; van Mulukom, Valerie; Onderdijk, Kelsey E.; Roberts, Reece P. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
Reports on differences between remembering the past and imagining the future have led to the hypothesis that constructing future events is a more cognitively demanding process. However, factors that influence these increased demands, such as whether the event has been previously constructed and the types of details comprising the event, have…

Karen Jo Johnson – ProQuest LLC, 2020
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of a simulation with worked examples on the creation of episodic memories and the troubleshooting ability of maintenance technician students. Previous research shows that domain knowledge, conceptual knowledge, strategic knowledge, and episodic memories are all required to successfully…
